ABSTRACT
El Sarcoma de Kaposi es un tumor vascular de origen multifocal que se relaciona con el virus herpes humano tipo 8. La afectación genital en el sarcomade Kaposi es rara sobretodo en pacientes VIH negativo. Las lesiones en este área muestran rasgos clínicos e histológicos similares a otras localizaciones,sin embargo, es interesante el diagnóstico diferencial con otras enfermedades que presentan lesiones genitales. Presentamos un caso de sarcoma deKaposi clásico localizado exclusivamente en pene (AU)
Kaposis sarcoma is a multifocal vascular tumor which is related to human herpes virus type 8. The genital involvement in Kaposis sarcoma is infrequentmostly in HIV - patients. Lesions in this area show similar clinical and histological features as Kaposis sarcoma lesions in other locations. However,the differential diagnosis is interesting taking into account other dermatological conditions than present with genital lesions. We report a case ofclassic Kaposis sarcoma located in the penis (AU)

The association of cutaneous lymphoproliferative diseases and primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) is infrequent, with only three cases reported to date. We present a patient with lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) who developed hypercalcaemia secondary to parathyroid nodular hyperplasia. A review of the literature has revealed no similar cases; we therefore believe this to be the first description of the association between LyP and PHP.
